This was a busy day. Lots of choirs because tomorrow at noon I have a double rotator cuff repair of my right arm scheduled. That puts me in a splint and arm sling for weeks and PT with no more than a lifted coffee cup for 6 weeks. This was the last day of 2017 to fish. I had no luck at Budd Lake, so off I went to Wharton and Washington Pond. The Pickerel were still active if the lure was slow and I could be deep without a weed snag. Overall from 3 to 4:35 I got 6 Pickerel from 14" to 22". A great end to my 2 arm independence.
